Captain D's - Pelham

I’ve never had a bad experience here before, but today was different. The bun was stale and charred, and there were barely any fries served. It was a really disappointing meal.

I won't be returning to this restaurant again. The pre-packaged tartar sauce was served at room temperature, the fries were cold and hard, and both the hush puppies and fish tasted like they were cooked in old oil. This has been the worst meal my wife and I have had since moving to Alabama. Consider this a warning: the food was terrible, and we should have just gone to McDonald's – and I really dislike McDonald's.

I had a fantastic experience at Captain D's! We visited this location on Friday, June 17th at around 5 PM, and everything was excellent. The cashier greeted us with a smile, the dining area and restrooms were spotless, our orders were prepared accurately, and the food—fish, okra, and fries—was hot and fresh. We will definitely return soon!

My skin crawled when I opened up the box and saw all of the crumbs. I visited Captain Ds in Pelham on 6/15/2022 in the later part of the evening. I do not know who thought it was appropriate to serve food this way. I initially could not even find thefish, as it was buried under mountains of crumbs, so the photo was taken after I fished out the filets from under the crumbs.Also, it appears that the filets are getting smaller and smaller. I remember back in the day when the fish servings were of adecent size.

Worst meal I ever received. Smallest portions imaginable. I ordered two three-piece dinners each one had about nine uncooked fries and each one had one small ice cream scoop of mac cheese. I had to cook the fries in an air fryer what you see in thepictures was for two orders. Keep in mind that each meal is $8.69 plus tax. I highly recommend you pick a different restaurant!
